Chapter 21: Back to School
Gu Wei did not waste time, and quickly contacted President Guo, who had taken care of the transportation, provided the required procedures, and then filled in the loan application form and signed it.
"Mr. Gu, I read the procedures you provided, there is no problem, there is about 2 days of review time, in fact, the bank is going through a process, I will notify you after approval, just come and sign the loan contract."
Governor Guo said.
"Thank you, President Guo, I am waiting for your good news."
After finishing the company's business, Gu Wei returned to school.
It's been a while since school started, and Gu Wei came to the teacher first to cancel the vacation.
Their homeroom teacher's surname is Xie, and he is a chubby middle-aged man, not tall, with thick hair, and a pair of black-framed glasses.
Mr. Xie is not strict with the management of the class, after all, it is a film school, and it has been 12 years now.
Although the teachers of the academy teach you knowledge and teach you to act, I hope you can study well and act well.
But they also know that it is not realistic to go down the road of being an actor just by studying in school.
Everyone's experience is different, some people are already stars before they enter school, and they are popular, and some people have studied for 4 years, and they can't film after graduation, and they can only change careers after running for a few years.
Therefore, when a student in the school asks for leave to go out to play, the teacher will always have the green light, and no one knows which play will affect the student's life.
is like Zhang Ziyi, if she hadn't been selected by Zhang Yimou to film [My Father and Mother] when she was in school, Ang Lee would not have asked her to play [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon], let alone enter Hollywood to work hard and become an international chapter. Those were two completely different lives.
"How's the movie going?"
Teacher Xie asked with concern.
"That's a good shot, teacher. Senior Brother Lu Yang is very talented, and he deserves to be a great director who has won the Golden Rooster Award. He also took very good care of me on the set. β
"Except for Zhou Dongyu in our class, you are the first to play the leading role. When I was a freshman, I saw that you were not in a hurry to go out to play at all, but I didn't expect you to play the starring role in the movie all of a sudden, you are really capable. Teacher Xie sighed.
"What a skill, I'm just lucky. Mainly thanks to Mr. Xu and Director Lu Yang for their attention. β
Teacher Xie said earnestly
"I really have to thank you, this opportunity is very important for you.
No matter how good or bad the movie is, being released is a big improvement to your fame, and the circle will know that there is an actor like you in the future.
When there is a director's casting, if it is suitable for you to play, you may be asked to audition.
When the movie is released, tell the teacher, and the teacher will also contribute to the box office. β
Gu Wei smiled and said, "I know, teacher." When the movie is released, I invite you and the whole class to go to the cinema to watch the movie. β
"Then it's decided." Mr. Xie was very happy for him.
Gu Wei went out to make a movie and played the leading role, which was reported to the head teacher. After all, when I joined the group last semester, I had to ask for leave from the school, and I had to follow the group for a long time, so of course I had to make it clear.
But he didn't mention that he was an investor, but just said that because of the director Lu Yang, who was introduced by Mr. Xu, he was favored for filming.
This situation often occurs in the academy, the big director goes to the school to find the protagonist, and the young actor is a fledgling and becomes an instant hit.
But now there have been fewer and fewer in recent years, and now the investment in movies is getting bigger and bigger, and the heroes and heroines selected are either big stars who are famous and can bring box office, or artists under the film company's own subordinates.
The students in the school want to play the leading role, or sign a big company to accept the oppression, and no one can look down on how many people want to go.
Either you want to participate in some literary films with little investment, as long as the director thinks you are suitable, you can be on it. But in the end, it's hard to say whether the movie can be released, and there is a high probability that it will be silent after filming.
China invests in about 1,000 films every year, of which 700 cannot be released.
If a film that can't be released can't win an award at a foreign film festival, sell the international rights. It can only be a matter of how much you invest, how much you lose.
For actors, it is to work with money, and their popularity has not increased at all.
Therefore, if you have no money and no power, it is too difficult to get ahead in the entertainment industry by studying hard in school and practicing your acting skills.
Although Mr. Xu knew that Gu Wei had invested money, he would not publicize it to him everywhere.
In class, Gu Wei, who I hadn't seen for a long time, appeared, and the classmates who knew each other were also enthusiastic.
Knowing that Gu Wei was going out to make a movie and playing the leading role, many people expressed envy.
"Gu Wei, it has to be you, your luck is simply amazing. Why haven't I been recommended by the teacher to the crew? Gao Yu said with admiration and envy on the side.
"Gu Wei is favored by the teacher of the director department, and you don't go to the director department to take classes, how can anyone take a fancy to you." Peng Doudou also came over and scolded him on the side.
"Okay, it's decided, I'll go to the director department from tomorrow, why didn't I think of this channel before, the director department is all learning to direct, and there must be more channels for acting than us." Gao Yu seemed to have figured something out. The whole person was excited, as if he would soon have the opportunity to play the leading role.
Gu Wei just smiled and didn't speak, let's let these classmates continue to be naΓ―ve, at least their innocence can be maintained for at least 2 years.
When you really get out of the campus, you will know how difficult it is to mix in the entertainment industry.
No one wants to play without money, but the actor brother smashed it with money.
It just so happened that Nazha was also at school during this time.
"Gu Wei, have you been busy lately?"
Nazha sat down and said to Gu Wei.
"Fortunately, the movie is finished, and it is estimated that it will be easy for a while. It's time to study well in school. β
Gu Wei replied.
"Why have I been looking for you recently, you always have something, and you can't talk on the phone, I feel like you've been separated from me a lot recently." Nazha said with some resentment.
"Damn, I'm really busy." Gu Wei said gently
"Let's have dinner together in the evening." Nazha suggested
"I made an appointment in the evening." Gu Wei had to go to find Zhang Tianai at night.
"Why do I always feel like you're deliberately avoiding me all this time?" Naza's feelings are still very sensitive.
Of course, Gu Wei is indeed keeping a distance from Nazha, since he established a relationship with Zhang Tianai, Gu Wei has consciously kept his distance from Nazha. I usually get serious when I call and send messages, and I don't say a word about superfluous jokes.
In Gu Wei's logic, since you have a girlfriend, you have to give people a sense of security.
It doesn't matter how much you flirt with a girl when you're single, it would be too bad to go out and talk to other girls when you have a partner, so why bother.
If you really want to talk, you can break up with your girlfriend, since you want to be friends, it is based on mutual equality and respect.
It's too disrespectful to have a girlfriend and discharge it everywhere.
